I am trying to read a few poems every night before bed in my quest to become someone who can say, “oh yes, I’ve read all of Emily Dickinson’s poems,” while everyone else in the room rolls their eyes so aggressively at me that it’s almost audible. Hop ...more "
I’m not what anyone thinks I am. I never was. I didn’t have the mouth to put it into words, to say what was wrong, to change the things I felt I needed to change. And every day it was difficult, walking around and knowing that people saw me
